AUGUST F. ZIMMERLING, OF MILW'A'UKEE, WISCONSIN, ASSIGNOR OF ONE- HALFTO J. A. BUTCHER AND I. E. BUTCHER, OF SAME- PLACE.

OIL-STOVE.

gPECIPICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 369,422, datedSeptember 6, 1887.

Application filed January 17, 1587. Serial No. 124.550, (No model.)

marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

My invention relates to improvements in oil-stoves, and it pertains moreespecially, first, to the device for raising the chimney, whereby thelamp is inserted and withdrawn there from, and, second, to the devicefor supporting the deflector centrally within and indepcnd ently of thechimney.

Figure l of the drawings represents a front view, part in section, of myimproved stove; and Fig. 2 represents a side view thereof, part insection, showing the lamp drawn out in front of the stove and supportedby the countor-weight of the reservoir. Fi 3 is a per spective View,part in section, of the device .for holding and adjusting the wick-tube.Fig. i represents a top view of the stove, part in section, a top viewof the supportingbracket of the deflector being shown upon the right anda sectional view of the same being shown upon the left, while a top Viewof one of the lamps is shown drawn forward upon the right, the body orframe being shown in section on a plane slightly above the deflector I.

The body of the stove A resembles in ap pearance an ordinary stove, andit is provided at its front side with a combustion-chamber, B, and twoseparate oil-lamps, 0, one lamp being located beneath each end of thecombustion-chamber. The lamps O are each connected with separatereservoirs, D, by oil-tubes E and the platform F. The reservoirs D arelocated upon the same plane with the lamps C, with which they areconnected, and directl y in rear thereof in such manner that as the lampis drawn forward past the front of the stove the rear end of theplatform F and the reservoir D remain within the stove beneath thecombustion-chamber and in such position 50 that they counterbalance theweight of and support the lamp in the position shown in Fig. 2.

To prevent all liability of the lamp 0 being tipped forward by anyaccidental pressure thereon when drawn out, the wall of thecombust-ion-chamber extends downward, terminating slightly above thereservoir in such a position as to arrest the upward movement of thereservoir in case the same should be tipped. The reservoirs are eachsupported on a scparate set of stationary rollers, G G. The rollers Gare supported upon ordinary bearings, (L a, which bearings are supportedat the side of the stove by bars H and I.

\Vhen the lamps G are in place beneath the chimneys J, the lower end ofsuch chimney overlaps and engages upon and around the upper end of theburner or cone K, thereby forming a close joint between the lamp and thechimney, which is necessary to produce the draft required forcombustion.

It is obvious that when the lamp cone and chimney are thus unitedtogether it becomes necessary to separate such parts preparatory towithdrawing the lamp from or returning it beneath the combustionchamberof the stove.

The chimney is disengaged from the cone and elevated preparatory toinserting the cone beneath it by turning 'he eccentric disks L beneaththe chininey-snpporting plat-e M. The plate M is supported at itsrespective ends on said eccentric, (shown in Fig. 1,) and the chimneys Jare supported upon said plate. Thus it is obvious that when the disk Lis in the position shown in Fig. 2 the end of the plate M restingthereon is raised and the chimney at such end is thereby disengaged fromthe cone of the lamp, as stated, when. the lamp may be drawn forwardfrom beneath the combustionchamber. \Vhen desirous to move bot-h lampsgo at the same time, both of said eccentric disks L are raised. Theeccentrics L are supported in bearings in the wall of the stove uponpins N N, which project through the wall of the stove, as shown in Fig.1, and are provided on 5 their exterior ends with a handwheel, O, bywhich they are turned.

The deflector]? is supported centrally within the chimney J by thethreearmed bracket It, the exterior arms, b,of which are rigidlyafiixed10o to the plate M, while the central arm, 0, is suspended from theupper end of said bracket centrally above said deflector P, which isattached thereto.

The device for adjusting the wick consists of a hollow open cylinder, A,provided upon one side with a vertically-arranged tooth-bar,

' B, and a small pinion, 0, rod D, and handwheel E. The wick is affixedto the exterior surface of the cylinder A, its vertical edges meetingupon the respective sides of said toothed bar B, and when thus securedto the cylinder the wick is caused to move bodily with the cylinderupward and downward as the hand-wheel E is turned toward the right andleft.

I have made a previous application for patent, Serial No. 210,486, whichwas filed August 9, 1886, which application contains, in part, the samesubject-matter as the present application, and I disclaim herein any ofthe combinations or devices claimed in my said previous application.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire tosecure by Letters Patent, is-

1. In an oil-stove, the combination of a movable lamp, 0, cone K,affixed thereto and ive ends upon the eccentrics L, eccentrics L,

and lamps C, said plate M and the chimneys thereon being adapted to beraised and lowered by turning said eccentric and said lamps engaged withor disengaged from said chimneys, substantially as and for the purposeset forth. 3. In an oil-stove, the combination, with the body A, of thechimney-supporting plate M, located at the bottom of thecombustion-ehamber, deflector-supporting bracket R, affixed to saidplate M, deflector P, affixed to said bracket R above the lamp 0 withinthe chimney J, chimney J, and lamp 0, substantially as set forth. t

In testimony whereof Iaffix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
